OK to put both Ram sticks in both Channel B Slots?

[zzmurray]

After a lot of problems after installing a new CPU and the A channels not recognizing the memory sticks anymore, even after Bios updating, I decided to stick both 8gb sticks in the 2 B channel slots. Now Windows is recognizing 16gb. Is it ok to have them both in the B section? Otherwise my only other option is replacing the motherboard.

It won't harm anything. You just loose the faster dual channel mode that way.
